Simple array init question

Yes. Thx. I am just searching for the more general pattern.

Now I can give up to find a foundation for your wish:

As you state it yourself it is just a single case, where you want to 
treat something differently from the general pattern, that arrays of 
type T[] are assigned to by mentioning a value of the type T.

You want to extend this general pattern by being able for all natural 
numbers n to initialize an array of type T[]^n by mentioning a value of 
type T.

But how to write a class that is able to mimic this behaviour?
